Have a tenured academic post at a higher education institute or research institute.

1Fellowships must be hosted in a UK university or research institute. Short periods of research experience away from the host institution may be requested and must be fully justified.

2We have updated our eligibility criteria for funding rounds which have a preliminary application deadline after August 2018 to introduce the Competency Framework. If you submitted your preliminary application to a funding round with an earlier deadline, our eligibility criteria based on years post-PhD will still apply and our Competency Framework will not apply to your application.
